Why manual testing is key to DevOps success

WATCH THE WEBINAR

“Automate everything!” seems to be the mantra of DevOps. But is this really the key to test effectively?

In a world of constant innovation, companies around the world aim to speed up time to market while improving efficiency and cross-team collaboration. Over the past decade, more and more development teams have started applying DevOps principles and practices.

A mature automation framework using (e.g. CI/CD tools) replaces manual work and therefore increases the speed by reducing human error in the process. As a result, the Dev team and IT infrastructure are brought closer together. However, when moving to DevOps, it is unrealistic to expect to automate all QA activities, for several reasons.

In our webinar, experts Constantin Büker (Sr. Director, Testing Services EU, Applause) and Trung Vo (Head of EU Onboarding and Conversion, Applause), will cover the following aspects:


WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

  • How much is too much when it comes to automating processes in DevOps?
  • Why and how manual testing plays a crucial role to ensure digital quality
  • How to integrate manual testing in the best possible way when working in DevOps
  • Constantin and Trung will also be available to answer questions live during our Q&A session
